AirCraft Plastic Breather Silencer 3/8" BSP Male Orange (SG SU-10)
At a Glance: 3/8" BSP Male plastic breather silencer for quieter pneumatic exhaust
Compressed air systems can be surprisingly loud—especially at exhaust ports. The AirCraft SG SU-10 Plastic Breather Silencer threads into a 3/8" BSP male port to help soften and diffuse exhausting air while also acting as a simple barrier against dust and debris. It’s a smart, low-effort upgrade for pneumatic valves, cylinders and air control components where reducing noise and keeping things cleaner makes daily work more pleasant (and often more professional).
The vented plastic body disperses exhaust airflow to help cut the sharp “hiss” of pneumatic discharge, while offering practical filtration against airborne contamination.
Features
- 3/8" BSP Male (M) thread Fits common pneumatic exhaust and breather ports.
- Plastic diffuser body Lightweight construction designed to disperse exhaust air.
- Noise-reducing breather design Helps soften pneumatic exhaust sound levels in use.
- Helps block dust and debris Supports cleaner operation around exhaust/breather points.
Benefits
- Quieter workspace: Reduces the sharp exhaust noise from valves and pneumatic components.
- Cleaner air handling: Helps limit dust ingestion/contamination at breather points.
- Fast, low-cost improvement: Simple screw-in fitment with immediate results.
Extra Information
- Commonly used on pneumatic valve exhaust ports, solenoid valves, manifolds and air cylinders where exhaust noise is noticeable.
- Install by threading into a compatible 3/8" BSP port—ensure the exhaust flow direction is not restricted by surrounding panels.
- In dusty environments, inspect periodically and replace if the silencer becomes clogged or airflow is reduced.
- Note: Excessive restriction on exhaust ports can affect valve/cylinder speed—choose the correct size for your airflow requirements.
Pro Tip
- If you notice slower actuator response after fitting a silencer, check for clogging or consider a higher-flow breather style—clean airflow equals crisp pneumatic performance.
Safety
- Wear eye, ear and dust protection when working around compressed air systems and exhaust ports.
- Depressurise the system before removing or installing breathers/silencers.
- Do not block exhaust outlets—restricted exhaust can affect pneumatic performance and component operation.
- Inspect regularly in dusty environments and replace if clogged to prevent backpressure issues.
